Chrome Bottle Traps

A bottle trap is a plumbing component installed beneath a basin to create a water seal that helps prevent unpleasant odours from entering the bathroom through the waste pipe. Bottle traps are often chosen for basins where the pipework remains visible.

Key benefits:

• Helps prevent unpleasant drain odours
• Creates a watertight connection between the basin and waste pipe
• Suitable for exposed plumbing installations
• Available in a range of styles and configurations

Bottle traps are commonly used beneath wall-mounted, countertop and semi recessed basins where the waste pipework is visible.

Common applications include:

• Wall-mounted basins
• Countertop basins
• Cloakroom basins
• Furniture-free basin installations

A bottle trap retains a small amount of water within the trap body. This water forms a seal that helps prevent drain odours from travelling back through the waste system.

Benefits include:

• Effective odour prevention
• Reliable drainage performance
• Compact design
• Easy access for maintenance

Both trap types are designed to prevent odours from entering the room, but they feature different designs and installation methods.

A bottle trap may be preferred because it offers:

• Compact construction
• Neat appearance for exposed installations
• Easy access for cleaning
• Suitable for modern basin designs

Bottle traps are compatible with many basins, although compatibility depends on the basin design, waste outlet position and plumbing arrangement.

Before ordering, check:

• Basin compatibility
• Waste size
• Pipework dimensions
• Product specifications

In many wall-mounted basin installations, a bottle trap is a popular choice because it provides a neat and professional finish where the plumbing remains visible.

The correct size depends on your basin waste and plumbing configuration.
